Goals for June
It's that time of the month to follow up on last months goals and make some new goals for this month.
MAY 2011 GOALS
1. Continue Couch to 10K--Yes and No. I got all the way to week 12 or so and I have kinda quit. I'm still working out (twice a day now)...and I've started yoga again. It's okay that I can't put a check by this one. I'm still proud of me.
2. Quit _______ (this one is serious!)--BIG NO FOR THIS ONE:(
3. Write chapter 3--BIG NO FOR THIS ONE TOO!!
4.Goal weight at the end of the month-125.0 lbs. Check...I haven't weighed myself since last Sunday, but as of last Sunday I weighed 124.2!!
5. Continue skin regimen--nope! (I'm sensing a pattern)
6. Continue vitamin regimen--nope!
7.Survive the last 17 days of school--Indeed...I DID survive the last 17 days!!
Okay...I should be pretty disappointed about last month's goals. Actually, I AM pretty disappointed by these goals. I was going to write a post the other day about how I NEVER finish what I start. I have big ideas...I set huge goals...I make long to do lists...and then I end the month with 2/7 things completed. It's frustrating...and it is a bad trait that I am not proud of. I always have such good intentions. Anyway, you know what they say...
If at first you don't succeed, yadda, yadda, yadda...
So, that is my motto...month after month. So here I go again for June...
JUNE 2011 GOALS
1. Hot yoga 2-3 times per week
2. Finish chapters 2 and 3 (This is non-negotiable...REALLY!!!)
3. Run/Walk 15-20 miles per week
And that's it. Maybe if I make a few less goals it will be easier to attain them...we'll see. *fingers crossed*

Damn That's Hot!!!
So Wednesday night, I went to my first hot yoga class since my bachelorette day in October. I was sooooo super excited about this for a couple of reasons.
1) I hadn't been to hot yoga since October!!! HELLO!?!?
2) My favorite instructor opened her own studio, which I was super anxious to try out.
3) I've been so stressed with dissertation stuff that I needed some stress relief.
3) It marked the beginning of my summer yoga regimen (which I have been counting down since April)
So, it should've been awesome, right?!?
Unfortunately, NO! It wasn't what I expected at all...Okay, where do I start!??
The studio is nice. Hardwood floors...two yoga rooms...cute little industrial area. I was a little surprised that when I walked in the lobby was really hot. As I waited in line to pay, I was already starting to sweat. And then there was a funny little smell that I couldn't put my finger on...
Anyway, I paid $25 for one week of unlimited classes. I have a groupon and a livingsocial pass too...but I wanted to save them until after I used the unlimited week for newcomers to the studio.
The way the studio is set up, you have to leave your shoes on the outside in the lobby and you put the rest of your stuff in a "locker room" just through the "hot room." I thought that it was kind of wierd (but no longer surprised) that the locker room was pretty hot too. I also wished that I could have kept all of my stuff with my shoes....but no big deal. So, I put my stuff down in a corner on a little baker's rack and found a spot in the room.
Before I go on...I need to add my disclaimer about the weather. We have been having unseasonably hot weather these days...even for Georgia. Wednesday was probably about 96 degrees outside. I have found in the past that the temperature in the studio can sometimes be dictated by the temperature outside. I say this to say...that the class was super duper HOT!! It was so hot that even the regulars who were all in the front of the room were falling out. The instructor turned on the fans and periodically opened the door to cool the room down. But after about an hour, all I wanted to do was lie in child's pose for the rest of the class. I kept trying to drink water, but I still felt like I was going to throw up.
But each time I tried to take a little rest,my ego something inside of me told me that I had to finish. Another thing that kept me going was the wonderful instructor, Bethany. I LOVE HER!!! She is so positive and supportive. She gently helps you into positions and steps on your feet to give you a nice little foot massage during class. She's the best!!!!
So, after 90 minutes, it was time to go...I felt very proud of myself...and very nauseous and light-headed. Walking through the puddle of sweat with no shoes on at the end made me even more nauseous. Blah!!! (I felt bad for the 7:30 class that had to lay their mats on that floor).
Anyway, the experience was not awful. It was just...okay. Part of it was my fault for not eating and drinking enough before I came...some of it was just the fault of the hot, Georgia sun. I also felt a little bored by the hot routine (which I didn't think was possible). My friend/co-worker that came with me said that I have to try hot power class next time...
Next time!??!? So, is there going to be a next time? DEFINITELY...besides the fact that I have already purchased 15 additional classes...I would go just for Bethany and to support her new studio. And I can't give up after just one time...sometimes you have bad hot yoga days. It happens. We'll see what happens on Sunday...

PITZA!!!!
Tonight's dinner was super yummy! fANNEtastic food is quickly becoming my favorite blog for recipes!
Tonight from Anne, I made "Chicken" Shawarma Pita Pitza (vegetarian style).
Vegetarian "Chicken" Shawarma Pita Pitza
Adapted from FANNEtastic food
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
For the Shawarma, mix ingredients together in a small bowl. Pour over Quorn chik'n pieces and mix (make sure all of the pieces are covered with the marinade). Let sit while you make cucumber yogurt garlic sauce.
For the cucumber yogurt garlic sauce, just put all of the ingredients in the food processor and mix. (I added the salt and pepper because it was super tart to me without it).
Put the "chicken" in a skillet until hot.
Toast the pita. Once finished toasting, spread hummus...lay 2-3 tomato slices on top of the hummus...then add the "chicken." Top some CYG sauce and some parsley (or spinach).
Calories: 367 Carbs: 47 grams Fat: 9 grams Protein: 25 grams
This was so dee-licious!!!!...and pretty easy too. I can't wait to have the leftovers for lunch. Thanks again, Anne!!!!
I wanna write an update on my trip to Red Hot Yoga yesterday...but I am so extremely tired. Two workouts a day has been kicking my butt. Maybe tomorrow. G'Night!!

Stupid Blogger
Blogger is messing up my posts!!! It won't let me compose a post in Normal mode...just HTML. Everything is all weird...very frustrating.
I went to help and they are supposed to be fixing the problem. I guess that I will edit it whenever it gets fixed.
BOO, Blogger!
Update: I think it was just me. I clicked something and now it's fixed...sorry, Blogger. You aren't stupid.
